holy shit – stranded at two harbors lp

matt fishbeck’s holy shit project has included ariel pink and christopher owens of girls in its roster, and 2006’s ariel pink-featuring stranded at two harbors is a shambolic, pink-fi folk pop record with peaks as high as his collaborators’ best. the songs have stuck with me.

fishbeck has reportedly been in isolation for the past few years as his former bandmates earned the ears of the world, but is now re-emerging solo with new live dates and a new record. i have heard murmurs about the new material being stunning, but definitely inhale these gems in the interim (seek out the record if you can), and catch weird magic with the live return of holy shit (alongside john maus, gary war and international tapes) this monday at glasslands.
